Michael J.Charged with Drug Offence

“At the time I was arrested and then charged I felt so uneasy because I had no clue what to do. I was worried because I could not fix the situation on my own.

Teresa M.Charged with Drug OffenceCharge dropped

“A conviction would have completely changed my life. I wouldn’t be able to travel freely for work and it would have eliminated anything involving any type of background check. When the charges were dropped I felt extremely appreciative and fortunate. I felt as though I had dodged a bullet and had been given the opportunity to make things better and learn from the situation.”

Robert P. Charged with AssaultCharges Dropped

“When the case was dealt with I had a life again. If I was convicted of what I was first charged with I would have lost my house and job – everything I had tried to build for myself.
